Description
'Get Your Kicks With ROUTE 66. The Big Band Sound From The Swing Era.' 20 years of providing great music!
This great, swinging band's repertoire consists of the classic and authentic big band hits by such greats as Glenn Miller, Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole and Count Basie among others.
Our lovely and very talented vocalists, Cindy Solvang and Ingrid DuMosch, add a special touch of glamour and excitement to the music. Robert Yetter, our personable and gregarious leader is an excellent MC. He will help coordinate announcements, first dance, bouquet and garter toss and other special activities. Everything to make your party memorable. Robert will be at your service to help in any way possible. His commitment to excellence in musical services extends beyond the event itself. Advance planning and last-minute changes are accommodated with every means possible--no detail is too small.
'Route 66' has a very large and loyal following earned from nearly 25 years of appearances at many corporate, civic and private functions all over the Seattle and Puget Sound area. This 14- to 18-piece band can make any occasion special.

Feedback
- Robert Yetter was our main point of contact for booking the talent. His responses were immediate and highly professional. Not only had they performed in our event space in the past, they were able to provide recommendations on how to make the sound more conducive to the networking environment we were trying to create. Cindy has an AMAZING voice and was talked about throughout the evening! I cannot wait to have another opportunity to book them again!

- This band MADE our night perfect, the music was perfect to link generations, as the twenty-somethings danced right along side the grandparents! I would whole heartedly and completely recommend this band to anyone, we still are receiving compliments on the band a month later! -- Sarah T, Tacoma, WA, 7/22/2006
